🖌️ About the Exhibition

This exhibition received entries from over 40 artists, all located in the Denver area, who meet once a week for life drawing at the studio of Daniel Sprick. The exhibition will include both paintings and/or sketches from artists including Anna Rose Bain, Mitch Caster, Raj Chaudhuri, Robin Cole, Diego Glazer, Andrea Kemp, Mikael Olson, Daniel Sprick, Jen Starling, Tanner Steed, and Adrienne Stein to name a few.

The Wednesday Group was formed in 1987, the same year as the Art Students League of Denver, and met at the studio of Darrell Anderson located on Blake Street. Two of the group’s original members, Quang Ho and Starlyn Winger, still attend the weekly life drawing sessions.

Mitch Caster, a member of the Wednesday Group and former exhibitor for The Art Center, stated, “I joined the group in 1989, and it has been hosted at different venues over the years and has evolved over that time. It’s now hosted by Daniel Sprick and has over 40 members.”

Many of the Wednesday Group’s members, including Caster, teach at the Art Students League and others at the Curtis Center for the Arts in Greenwood Village.

Due to the amount of works represented, the exhibition will span the North, Kephart, and Atrium galleries.

It is a sincere honor to have the opportunity to exhibit such a talented and dynamic group of artists. We hope that you are enriched by the experience this exhibition will provide to the Grand Valley.
